[Nov 10, 2024] EPC Sunday Sermon Application Questions

November 10, 2024
The Gospel According to Jonah
Jonah 4:1-11

Discussion Questions
  1. Jonah was furious with God’s mercy toward Nineveh, even calling it “evil.” Have you ever felt resentful when God showed grace or blessing to someone you thought didn’t deserve it? How did you work through that feeling?
  2. Jonah experienced God’s grace, yet he struggled to extend it to others. Why do you think it’s possible to receive grace and still not fully understand it? How can we grow in our understanding of grace?
  3. Jonah’s sense of superiority and self-righteousness blinded him to his need for grace and compassion for others. What are some ways self-righteousness might show up subtly in our own lives? How does it affect our relationships with others?
  4. The book of Jonah ends with God’s question, leaving us to reflect. How can we apply this question to our own lives today? What does it mean for us to care about what God cares about, and how can we align our hearts with His compassion?
  5. The gospel is not just for those who outwardly stray but for those like Jonah, who may hold hidden pride or self-righteousness. In what areas of your life do you struggle to live out the humility and compassion of the gospel? How can this realization bring you closer to God?
